Automate and Bolster Protection of All Sensitive Email With an Email Protection Gateway

Nearly every single business relies on the security and integrity of their email communications. Employees share customer data, financial information, trade secrets, and intellectual property with trusted third parties like customers, suppliers, consultants, investors, and other stakeholders every day. Yet every email sent, stored, or received is at risk of interception, whether by phishing, malware, ransomware, business email compromise or other malicious act that can result in a data breach, compliance violation, customer loss, litigation, and more.

Kiteworks’ Email Protection Gateway (EPG) provides superior email protection, control, and tracking that meets the industry’s toughest standards. Kiteworks EPG supports a wide range of encryption standards, including S/MIME, OpenPGP, and TLS encryption standards with automatic certificate and key handling, making it a versatile solution for businesses of all sizes and industries. Kiteworks EPG also enables business users to send and receive external email using their normal email clients and processes, without the need for plugins. All together, Kiteworks EPG lets businesses accommodate partners’ differing encryption standards and keep their data out of the hands of interlopers like hackers and even cloud service providers.

Automate Encryption for Email Protection

Kiteworks EPG automates email protection, letting organizations “set and forget” their email security. EPG features policy-based encryption, giving organizations the freedom to encrypt sensitive emails but not others. By automating the “encrypt or not” decision-making process, organizations eliminate needless user steps and costly mistakes. Finally, flexible and granular policy settings can be configured to precisely match your specific encryption requirements and risk tolerance for different types of data.

Make Email Encryption Invisible to Users

Kiteworks EPG provides organizations with standard email clients but also key automation. With Kiteworks EPG, users work in their normal email clients so there’s no new application or process to learn. Additionally, emails are encrypted in the email client or gateway, not a plugin. Email encryption keys are automatically exchanged with recipients as are certificates and key management capabilities. In total, users are unaware of Kiteworks EPG’s turbocharged encryption capabilities, so their workflows are never interrupted.

Protect Email Content With Strict End-to-End Email Encryption

Kiteworks EPG lets organizations preserve sensitive email content and file attachments from cloud vendors and APT attacks with comprehensive, end-to-end encryption. Internal and external mails are encrypted using the S/MIME email encryption standard from the sending client straight through to the receiving client, even as the email crosses through network firewalls. A private decryption key stays in the receiving client, so neither server-side vendors nor attackers can decrypt any intercepted emails. An automated key exchange makes encryption and decryption seamless for users.

Protect Bidirectional Email Privacy and Compliance

Kiteworks’ Email Protection Gateway ensures data privacy and regulatory compliance for every inbound and outbound email. Organizations set their own email security policies to determine which sensitive emails to encrypt. Apply your DLP solution to all outbound traffic to prevent data leaks and your anti-malware and anti-phishing to all inbound traffic to prevent APT, ransomware, and other cyberattacks. Leverage an ICAP integration for enabling external scanner collaboration and seamless integration with Microsoft AIP and RMS to further bolster confidentiality. Finally, stop worrying about file size constraints; Kiteworks EPG supports massive file attachment sizes.

Collaborate With Partners and Their Different Encryption Standards Using Flexible Encryption

Kiteworks’ Email Protection Gateway empowers seamless collaboration with organizations employing diverse encryption standards. Bridge to and from S/MIME, OpenPGP, and TLS protocols. Automated key exchange and recipient flows streamline processes and ensure hassle-free interactions. For recipients lacking their encryption setups, Kiteworks offers secure alternatives including secure web download with a secure link (WebMail) or self-decrypting encrypted HTML (Registered Envelope).

Unify Logging, Audit, and Administration for Data Exchanges

The Kiteworks Private Data Network goes beyond encryption to protect sensitive data shared, sent, or received from trusted third parties. Kiteworks unifies sensitive email, file sharing, SFTP, MFT, web forms, and APIs in a single platform and provides a single set of controls, policies, user roles, and indicators to ensure data governance, regulatory compliance, and protection against the risk of unauthorized access.
